Need help

I put on an addition to my house 800 sq ft 1 family room , 1 bedroom and I looped the cable from room to room.( no homeruns)
How do I connect them and have them accessible to that room

I went from left wall fam rm to center wall fam rm to partion
I hooked on both sides of partion and then over to right wall bdrm

Thank you

don't exactly understand your question. if you have them all split off from somewhere that the cable input to the house is, all you do is plug them into the TV and they will work.

one cable comes to the addition and comes down the wall and ends
another cable goes up the same wall and goes to the next spot where a cable goes down the wall and one comes up to go to another spot and then goes to the bedroom wall and ends

all ends are cut and have no connectors on them yet
I wanted to know how to keep the signal going from the first one to the last and still have them accessible to use

still not seeing the whole picture of your addition without a drawing, but the way i am picturing it......

what i would do is run one piece of coax from the cable companies input towards the addition....buy a 3 way splitter, and split off to each of 3 places from that.

no matter how you look at it, you have no choice but to split off from the cable input into the house.

oh, i get it now....just drew a picture, and you will need to use 2 splitters... one from room A (one to TV and one to room B) and the next splitter will be one to TV and one to room C

cavy... the wall jacks may also come in a version that act as a splitter, have never checked into that. we have cable wiring run the redneck way.... OUTSIDE the walls... LOL
